I feel so out of it! I feel like I've missed out on the lives of hundreds
of my friends for months and months and have no way to catch up again!!

Working 10 hour days with a 3 hour (total both ways) commute is not
conducive to keeping up with RPCA and its hundreds of posts per day. If I
had one wish it would be a "recap" post once a week to get highlights of all
your lives and your masters' lives.

In lieu of that, can anyone tell me if I've missed anything momentous?

This is Chris, recapping.

Thursday Oct 12, snow storm shuts down Buffalo, NY. I heard about it
Friday, I live about 100 miles east of Buffalo. Didn't even know there
was a storm, until about 24 hours after the snow. Of course, this is
Friday the Thirteenth.

Went to visit Baha, and her husband and four kitty cats. They are
holding up with skill, and courage. They were without power for about
ten days. In the meantime, they made do. And will be better prepared
for the next storm.

Lucky me got to scratch the cats. Sabrina is coming out of her hiding,
and was kind enough to let me scratch her.

It still hurts, and by the end of the week it gets all numb and tingly
so I think there's still a lot of healing that needs to happen. It
will probably be one of those things that aches every time the weather
changes - such is old age, which sucks! ;>

Thanks Polonca!

I'm still visiting Dave at the hospital but he's been transferred to rehab (9
days earlier than they said it would be!)

I got some lovely pics of the Fabulous Furballs on my mobile phone on Sunday.
Dunzi in particular hammed it up for the camera.

They met my friend Jim on Sunday as well and were all over him!

I got given a free sample of Royal Canin and through they like it, I think
their little hearts still belong to IAMS. Still as I was nowhere near
anywhere that sells IAMS and very near the vet's that gave me the Royal Canin
samples so I got a 1.5kg sack to keep them fed for a while

I'm so happy Dave is recovering faster than expected! Purrs are still
coming!

LOL! Just like my Jessie, she has to have been a model in a former
life, when the camera comes out so does she!

> They met my friend Jim on Sunday as well and were all over him!

PUtting their scent on him and marking him as a soft touch for future
owners, no doubt.

I've never tried either. Mine were all on Science diet dry until their
new vet recommended canned, so not they get free-fed SD Senior Advanced
Formula and have Fancy Feast twice a day for their main meal. They
seem to be thriving on that, but I've heard other vets recommending
IAMS, so if they ever get tired of FF I'll give that a try.

Thanks for responding Lesley, I've felt so out of it lately, like a
stranger int he midst of my own family! I'm hoping for a new job soon
that will have me working a lot less hours so I can get back into the
swing of things here!

Hugs,

Royal Canin is a vastly superior food to IAMS. IAMS has a very high
cereal content and uses animal by-products, whereas Royal Canin has
dehydrated poultry meat as it's first listed product, doesn't use
indigestable ceareals and wouldn't touch animal by-products with a 50ft
barge pole. Plus, they have *wonderful* gossamer like coats on RC,
whereas I have always found IAMS makes their coats dull and dry and they
puke more.

But then, I am Royal Canin bias as several posters here will tell you.
;o) You'll be doing the mogs a favour if you wean them off IAMS onto RC.

Speaking from Rusty's experience, he was on IAM's ocean fish dry when
he had his first urinary blockage. Since then he has been on various
prescription food. He was on Waltham's S/O prescription canned food
when Royal Canin bought Waltham. It might be coincidence, but that was
about the same time he started pooping on the floor. The vet didn't
find anything wrong with him. The inappropriate pooping stopped as soon
as he was switched over to Science Diet's prescription I/D formula. Now
Rusty is on Medi-Cal's prescription Mature Cat formula. He is 12 years
old. I don't know whether there will be any further switch in food.
